well, i think the "problem" wif boc is that most people who really like them now thought their first releases were pretty standard. and then went back to them after being like "hmm i now have this song in my head and i'm not sure where it's from".. at least that's what happened to me :) but really, by saying that it grows on you is likely one of the biggest compliments you can give to boc, cos i always get the impression that it's what they're shooting for. anywho, the main melody on kid for today, from what i've heard from the short sample and from the remix (which i don't like all too much, but c'est la vie), should be dreamy :) cheers, /derek ----------- "Extremism is no vice when God's on your side" -Opus the Penguin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
